H J 4 J j - HANNA AS A CANDIDATE. B U 3 These are days when candidates are being dis- jlftf cussed. Of all men whom President Roosevelt Mft j should fear in 1904, as it now looks, that man is HH jjl Mark Hanna. He is talking just now particularly Kgl jl to working men. He has, in this respect, special HH 'I?! I advantages over many other talkers. He has em- D "m I ployed thousands of workingmen in his time, and R iStfi ! from those thousands he can select many hundreds Hf a'jjj to go to the country and declare that the interests H Hj j - of workingmen would be safer under him than any HI ffi?t' 3 other man, as President. MM 1 : , Then he has a catching way of talking. He im- Buif If I presses audiences with his sincerity. This, too, H jjjjj I applies to all classes; in the Senate of the United Hj ill I States he makes the same impression as upon a KB Ijl I crowd of farmers and artisans. His physical cour- wel I ij age is not doubted, but he has besides that moral HlllfPf ij courage which prompts him to express his opin- Kii Ij lons on a11 questions and to meet any form of op- Rjfllffi position which rises in his path. Mffiljl IJ Finally, he was the very closest friend of the W9l H late President McKinley. Except for him it is Bajljfj Sj doubtful if Mr. McKinley Would, have ever strug- Kilj'!: S gled to the surface from the load of debts which Hgni W fell, upon him. The men of Ohio appreciate this, HI I ! 1 and when a full Ohio contingent delegates and HH? ' i If shouters make a united demand, they are always MH -I II heard at least. HfJUp j i Then again, Mark Hanna has the absolute con- Rjlgl jfjj fidence of the great host of men who conduct the llflE I Ilk country's industries, and of the transportation Hli W ! I. '4 companies who carry on the Nation's internal com merce. It is a clear case that if he enters the race as a Presidential candidate he -will be dangerous to every other man who aspires to that high office. President Roosevelt can carry the Western del egates easy enough, but Western delegations are small. Suppose Hanna were to combine about half a dozen tf the great middle old West States, say Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and Wisconsin, and have the delegates from those States enthu siastic for him from the beginning, it is easy to see that he would be most formidable. As chair man of the Republican National committee, he knows the situation in every State and the caliber and disposition of very many prominent men in all the States. He is a politician; he understands perfectly the nature of a fight for a nomination, and he would not hesitate in the least to use the necessary means necessary from his standpoint to win. i Reduced to sporting parlance, Mark Hanna would sell high in the pools. Those who believe in exact calculations and those who make their calculations on the doctrine of chances, would alike hold Mark Hanna's possi bilities great. Finally, those who contribute large sums to campaigns would probably invest more in Mark Hanna's cause than for any other man among Re publicans, for this is the age of gold, and is as yet far removed from the golden age, that the senti mentalists look forward to and dream about. Speaking of reservoirs, it is a fact that a great portion of the water of the streams adjacent to this city runs to waste for quite half the year. It is a clear case that could this be saved there would be no more water famine. Is it not just as clear that reservoirs should be established wherein to save it? Ij j ?JA1 ERMCtt & BRO .

Wlien her mother married Sartoris, General, then President, Grant attended the wedding and then hade her a smiling good-bye, but an hour later his secretary, on urgent business went to his sleeping apartment in the White House and found him lay ing on his bed, his face buried in a pillow and sob bing like a weak and crushed woman. It was not because his daughter had married the man of her choice and gone away, but because by the mar riage she had alienated herself from native land and would thenceforth be a foreigner. Many people have tried to describe Gen. Grant's great traits. Not many have dwelt much upon his very greatest trait. That was his patriotism. That was what caused him to dictate the terms that he did to Gen. Lee. He wanted animosities to cease and to see the beginning of the building up of a restored Union. But he gave a much clearer proof of his ruling thought after the battle of Shiloh, when Halleck and the others sought to put him in disgrace. He was temporarily out of command, and when a friend reproachfully spoke to him ol the actions of the War department toward him, he quietly answered, "Never mind, it will come out all right. If there is no room for me as an offi cer, these is plenty of room in the ranks." He was one officer who had no idea of abandoning the army while the war lasted, even if no place should be left him but in the ranks. So all his American ism was aroused and he was grieved almost to heart-breaking when his daughter married an En glishman and went to make her home beyond the sea. But maybe there was a destiny about it and about the marriage of so many other American girls to foreigners. Thirty-five years ago the United States could not count upon one friend among the nations of the Old World with the sole exception of Russia. I Kb i They Remind You of Florida.
